lol...
I just have a small reserve when he says: Fast than anybody should want to go...
Oh yeah...as fast as 0-60 in 5.0 sec?...Oh we don't know...you don't tell us!!:wacky:
I've seen that video. But thanks for sharing!!!
I have come to find with my racing and track experience.
What my version of fast and others version of fast is
totally different. Just sold my 13' Evo yesterday. Though
I don't expect it to handle like it. With being AWD, and having 4 wheels.
But I do expect is to corner carve well. I think it will. I can't wait to
try it out!
Minnesota doesn't have a helmet law, and you only need eye protection if you ride without an approved "windscreen", the windshield on the SS would qualify. My brother got out of a "no eye protection" ticket on is GSXR-750 because the owners manual refers to the little windshield as a "protective windscreen".
You would be stupid to ride any crotch rocket without eye protection, but in all fairness my brother was at a stoplight , flipped his glasses up on his forward to talk to someone next to him and the officer pulled him over because he didn't lower them until he crossed the intersection.
sales pitching how "crazy fast" it is without talking the actual numbers is because you don't know your product or don't want people to know your product. It drives me nuts.
I consider this is going to be akin to the mustang release. People expect weight reduction. Ford talks about how much effort went into makes parts lighter. Rumors start to swirl that its a porker and then the numbers leak out and it didnt gain "that much" and everyone is okay with the final product.

I remember reading or watching a video with the Polaris Rep talking about this, I can't seem to find it right now.
Basically Polaris says the reason for not sharing the 0-60 or top speed numbers are that they don't want it to be about the "numbers". They claim the Slingshot is unlike anything you have ever experienced and the numbers won't matter. By the reaction of this reporter and everyone else that seems to ride in a Slingshot I am really starting to believe them. The reporters says " I don't know if I've ever felt so alive", that is a pretty amazing reaction! Or her husband really sucks....

It is certain that this will be an amazing experience for those who have never had this type of vehicle and the journalist seems to be a little lady who has never had this kind of experience on a track before that day!
So her reaction to it is normal! But for someone like me who had a T-Rex or others here who have had convertible Corvettes and other cars of its kind, the experience will not be felt in the same way that the young lady!
So the only way to know how will be the SS is to have in the hands because I remain cautious on why Polaris is hiding the numbers ... it's unusual that a company do that and i don't think it's a good sign! But the good thing i still don't care about 0-60 result! I don't buy it for race anyway!
I agree feel will be the ultimate driver. I am not a paper stat buyer as I bought a miata over a mustang gt and we all know which is faster both in the straights and round a track. I just dont want to eventually finding myself putting the pedal to the floor and going "man, i wish i had more power" which is something that eventually happened in the miata as it aged.

Not everyone accepts its taste. Natural yogurt is not sweet and should be low in fat. How to eat To make its taste more accessible, it is worth adding fruit, linseed, and honey to it. Yogurt is also great as a base for sauces, cocktails, dips. It is important that the label indicates that the...
Was supposed to buy a buddies SS today, he is in Florida and Im on the NC/ SC border. He was going to bring it to me and we had talked about him just renting a dolly from Uhaul and towing it here. I ended up not being able to buy his SS ( long story ) so not a issue at the moment, but he...
A neighbor told me I was crazy for putting my kids in my Slingshot, which got me thinking...
am I the only one that has/will put their kids in their SS?
I like it..are they in the dealerships yet and does anyone know if the 5 speed manual in the r model is the same as the previous years..was wondering if they still have the angle gear and the whine it produces..thanks in advance
Can anyone confirm if you can run both? I found this picture online, but I can't tell if thing wing is mounted through the roll hoops or the top rear deck.
